DETAILED DESCRIPTION Introduction

The VHP empowers users to record, edit and share their world view with their social networks. A user may record a video through a video camera embedded in the user's headphones. Audio may also be recorded through one or more microphones, which are installed into the headphone cable control unit and/or located underneath the video camera. Once the user finishes recording the video, the user may add music, apply filters, make audio and/or video adjustments, provide a description of the video, and/or the like. After the user finishes editing the video, the video may be shared with the user's social networks.

Detailed Description of the VHP

FIG. 1 shows a logic flow diagram illustrating a world view sharing (WVS) component in one embodiment of the VHP. In FIG. 1, a request to share a world view video may be received at 101. For example, a world view video may be a video showing what may be seen and/or heard by a user (i.e., the view from the user's eye level). In one embodiment, the request to share a world view video may be received based on activation of a record button on video headphones (e.g., the record button may be integrated into a headphone cable) by the user. In another embodiment, the request to share a world view video may be received based on activation of a record button of a VHP mobile app (e.g., running on the user's smart phone) by the user.

The VHP may facilitate video recording via video headphones at 105. In various embodiments, video headphones may be headphones with an embedded and/or attached video camera. In various implementations, video headphones may include features such as HD premium quality sound, pivoting ear pads for multi-angle recording, one or more HD (e.g., 1080p) video cameras, one or more dynamic microphones, audio and/or video controls (e.g., record video, adjust volume, skip forward and/or back, mute) integrated into a headphone cable, and/or the like. In one implementation, the video headphones may include a video camera on one of the earpieces, and the video camera may have a microphone (e.g., located underneath the video camera). In another implementation, the video headphones may include two video cameras, one on each earpiece, and each video camera may have a microphone. A video camera and/or the accompanying microphone, if the video camera has a microphone, may pivot and/or swivel (e.g., 360 degrees in any direction) to allow the user to record video in any direction. For example, a user may angle the video camera up to record a video of a bird in a tree. In another example, the user may point one video camera straight ahead and the other video camera towards the back to record a split screen of what is in front and behind the user. In yet another example, the user may position both video cameras in such a way (e.g., both video cameras pointing in the same direction) as to allow three dimensional (3D) video recording. The video headphones may be connected (e.g., via a headphone cable, via a wireless technology capable of transmitting HD video) to the user's client (e.g., a smart phone, a portable media player, a tablet) and may record and transmit the video (e.g., including video and/or audio) to the client (e.g., via the VHP mobile app). For example, the video may be stored locally on the client. In another example, the video may be stored remotely (e.g., on a remote server). In one implementation, the video may be of any desired length. In another implementation, a minimum and/or a maximum length for the video (e.g., 15 seconds) may be specified.

A determination may be made at 110 whether the user wishes to trim the recorded video. In one embodiment, this determination may be made by prompting the user to indicate whether the user wishes to trim the video (e.g., via a “would you like to trim the video?” prompt). In another embodiment, this determination may be made by displaying a video selection widget via the VHP mobile app and allowing the user to trim the video via the video selection widget if the user chooses to do so.

If the user wishes to trim the video, a desired video segment may be determined at 115. In one embodiment, the user may trim the video by dragging a video selection widget of the VHP mobile app to select a video segment of a predetermined size (e.g., a 10 second video segment). In another embodiment, the user may trim the video by expanding and/or shrinking the size of a video selection widget of the VHP mobile app to select a desired video segment. In yet another embodiment, the user may combine multiple videos (e.g., the current video and one or more previously recorded videos) into one video. The video may be trimmed to the desired video segment at 120.

A determination may be made at 125 whether the user wishes to add audio to the video. In one embodiment, this determination may be made by prompting the user to indicate whether the user wishes to add audio to the video (e.g., via a “would you like to add audio?” prompt). In another embodiment, this determination may be made by facilitating user selection of audio via the VHP mobile app and allowing the user to add audio to the video if the user chooses to do so.

If the user wishes to add audio to the video, the VHP may facilitate audio selection at 130. In one embodiment, the user may select audio (e.g., music) from the user's audio collection (e.g., by pressing a “My Music” button of the VHP mobile app). In one implementation, the user may select a music album and/or track (e.g., a song) and/or a playlist from the user's music collection. The user may also utilize an audio selection widget to select the desired portion of the selected audio to be added to the video. For example, the length of the selected audio portion may be set to be equal to the length of the video. In another implementation, the VHP may suggest audio to the user that well matches actions in the video. For example, the VHP may suggest songs and/or playlists and/or audio portions whose tempo matches the actions in the video. In another embodiment, the user may select audio from the VHP's audio collection (e.g., by pressing a “VHP Library” button of the VHP mobile app). For example, the user may purchase music albums and/or songs and/or audio effects via the VHP mobile app. In one implementation, the user may select audio and/or a portion of the audio from the VHP's audio collection in a similar manner as described above with regard to the user's audio collection. In another implementation, the user may select audio from the VHP's audio collection based on suggestions from the VHP made in a similar manner as described above with regard to the user's audio collection.

A determination may be made at 135 whether the user wishes to adjust the audio. In one embodiment, this determination may be made by prompting the user to indicate whether the user wishes to adjust the audio (e.g., via a “would you like to adjust the audio?” prompt). In another embodiment, this determination may be made by facilitating user selection of audio adjustments via the VHP mobile app and allowing the user to adjust the audio if the user chooses to do so.

If the user wishes to adjust the audio, the VHP may facilitate desired audio adjustments at 140. In one embodiment, the user may adjust the audio by speeding up and/or slowing down the audio. For example, the user may utilize “Slow Down” and/or “Speed Up” buttons of the VHP mobile app to adjust audio speed (e.g., in discreet chunks, such as 2× or 3× faster or slower; continuously, such as based on the length of time that a button is pressed). In this embodiment, the length of the selected audio portion may vary based on the speed of the audio. For example, if the user speeds up a song, the user may be able to select a longer portion of the song. In another example, the user may choose to have an entire song play during the duration (e.g., 2 minutes) of the video, and the speed at which the song is played back may be adjusted accordingly (e.g., so that the entire song is played back in 2 minutes) by the VHP. In another embodiment, the user may adjust the audio by auto tuning the audio. For example, the user may utilize an “Auto Tune” button of the VHP mobile app. In yet another embodiment, the user may adjust the audio by adding sound effects to the audio. For example, the user may utilize a sound effects selection widget of the VHP mobile app.

The audio may be added to the video at 145. In one embodiment, the added audio may replace audio recorded in the video. In another embodiment, the added audio may be combined with audio recorded in the video. In some embodiments, the user may post artist credit (e.g., via a “Post Artist Credit” button of the VHP mobile app) for audio (e.g., a song) being used in the video. For example, the artist credit may scroll in a specified location (e.g., across the bottom of the video).

A determination may be made at 150 whether the user wishes to add video effects to the video. In one embodiment, this determination may be made by prompting the user to indicate whether the user wishes to add video effects to the video (e.g., via a “would you like to add video effects?” prompt). In another embodiment, this determination may be made by facilitating user selection of video effects via the VHP mobile app and allowing the user to add video effects to the video if the user chooses to do so.

If the user wishes to add video effects to the video, the VHP may determine desired video effects at 155. In one embodiment, the user may select desired video effects (e.g., sepia filter, black and white filter, monochromatic filter, a light filter, a frame around the video, speed up and/or slow down the video) via a video effect selection widget of the VHP mobile app. In another embodiment, the user may wish to add various video elements (e.g., a video start element, a video end element, a transition element, a comments element) to the video. For example, the user may wish to insert a comment into the video after an amusing scene in the video. The desired video effects may be added to the video at 160.

A description of the video may be obtained from the user at 165. In one embodiment, the description may include a title. In another embodiment, the description may include the user's description for the video. In some implementations, the description may have a minimum and/or a maximum size. For example, a title may have to be at least 1 character long and no more than 50 characters long. In another example, the user's description for the video may have to be no more than 148 characters. In yet another example, the minimum and/or the maximum size for the description may correspond to those specified by social networks on which the video may be shared (e.g., a maximum of 140 characters for Twitter).

The video may be added to the user's video library at 170. For example, the video may be stored (e.g., on the client, on a remote server) and added to the user's VHP profile. If the user chooses to share the video with other VHP users, the other VHP users may comment on the video, mark the video as favorite, forward the video to others, and/or the like. The user may also see how many times the video has been viewed, post comments, and/or the like.

A determination may be made at 175 whether the user wishes to share the video via one or more social networks (e.g., Facebook, Tumblr, Twitter, Instagram, Pinterest, Vimeo, YouTube). In one embodiment, this determination may be made by prompting the user to indicate whether the user wishes to share the video (e.g., via a “would you like to share the video?” prompt). In another embodiment, this determination may be made by facilitating user selection of social networks on which to share the video via the VHP mobile app and allowing the user to share the video if the user chooses to do so.

If the user wishes to share the video, social networks on which the user wishes to share the video may be determined at 180. In one embodiment, the user may select desired social networks via appropriate buttons of the VHP mobile app and press a “Share Now” button to initiate sharing on the selected social networks. In another embodiment, the user may specify default desired social networks (e.g., via the user's profile settings) so that the default desired social networks are preselected for the user, and the user may press a “Share Now” button to initiate sharing on the selected social networks. The video may be shared on the selected social networks at 185 (e.g., via appropriate APIs provided by the social networks).

FIG. 2 shows a data flow diagram in one embodiment of the VHP. FIG. 2 provides an example of how data may flow to, through, and/or from the VHP. In FIG. 2, a user 202 may provide a command to initiate video recording 221 to the client 210 (e.g., a smart phone, a portable media player, a tablet). In one embodiment, the user may provide the command to initiate video recording by pressing a record button on the user's video headphones 206. In another embodiment, the user may provide the command to initiate video recording by pressing a record button of a VHP mobile app on the client.

The client may send a video data request 225 to the video headphones. For example, the video data request may be in XML format and may include data such as a command to initiate video recording, video parameters (e.g., video resolution, video aspect ratio, audio quality), video recording length, and/or the like. The video headphones may begin and/or end video recording based on the video data request.

The video headphones may send a video data response 229 to the client. For example, the video data response may be in XML format and may include data such as the recorded video (e.g., including video and/or audio), video information (e.g., date and/or time of recording, location of the video), and/or the like.

The client may output an adjustments request 233 to the user. In various embodiments, the adjustments request may prompt the user to trim the video, to add audio to the video, to adjust audio in the video, to add video effects to the video, to provide a description of the video, to share the video, and/or the like. For example, the adjustments request may be output via a GUI of the VHP mobile app.

The user may input an adjustments response 237 into the client. In various embodiments, the adjustments response may indicate whether and/or how the user wishes to trim the video, to add audio to the video, to adjust audio in the video, to add video effects to the video, to describe the video, to share the video, and/or the like. For example, the adjustments response may be input via the GUI of the VHP mobile app.

If the user wishes to add audio (e.g., from the VHP's audio collection) to the video, the client may send an audio data request 241 to a VHP server 214. For example, the VHP server may store songs available from the VHP (e.g., in an audio data store 330 c). For example, the audio data request may be in XML format and may include data such as the user's identifier and/or password, an identifier of a requested song and/or album and/or playlist, audio parameters (e.g., audio format, audio quality in kbps), a payment method, and/or the like.

The VHP server may send an audio data response 245 to the client. For example, the audio data response may be in XML format and may include data such as the requested song and/or album and/or playlist, audio parameters, a payment confirmation, and/or the like. The client may add the obtained audio to the video and/or adjust the obtained audio and/or the video based on user instructions.

If the user wishes to share the video, the client may send a share request 249 to a social network 218. The share request may include the video and instruct the social network to post the video via the user's social network account. For example, the share request may be sent via the social network's API command and may include data such as the user's identifier and/or password on the social network, the video, the description of the video, video information (e.g., date and/or time of recording, location of the video obtained via the client's GPS), and/or the like. The social network may send a share response 253 to the client. For example, the share response may be sent via the social network's API command and may indicate whether the video was shared on the social network successfully.

The client may provide a video output 257 to the user. For example, the video output may inform the user whether the user's video has been stored (e.g., in a videos data store 330 d), added to the user's profile, shared on one or more social networks, and/or the like.
